Looking at the Darn Tough Womens Micro Crew -- do these seem any less tight at the top than other Darn Tough styles (or Smartwool, for that matter)?

My ankles tend to swell and when I take my socks off there is usually an indentation, with these the was none. HOPE THAT HELPS.

I would say no but fit and feel is very personal. The recipient of this gift is very pleased.

I do not think they are as fluffy as smart wool socks. They are a denser weave. I think they may be slightly less thick, but since the fabric is denser, it protects my feet just as well or better. I prefer Darn Tough to Smart Wool because of this. Also, they do not get stretched out as much as Smart Wool.

They are snug, but not what I would consider "tight". They are SO comfortable, in fact, that a couple weeks ago, I forgot I had them on and tried to walk away from my mixing console, and I ruined the plug. That pair has served me very well for about 4 years now, so I'm here to buy a replacement pair.

I agree with B.W. these are a tight fit for width. I got a large and i have size 11.5 and these were hard to get on.

I think it would be a little too tight.. You prob could get them in but I don't think it would be a "comfortable" fit..

No! They zip pretty tight ! Some brands have a plastic encasement over the zipper!

I think they run small. I wear a 7.5 women's shoe and these fit very well, just a bit snug at the top. If I wore a size larger shoe I would definitely go to the next size sock!

Hi Andrea, If swelling of the ankles is a problem, you might want to give these a pass. The entire sock fits snugly. I don't find that the top is any tighter than the rest of the sock; the whole sock, however, is snug. My husband, found them a bit too close-fitting for his comfort. Hope this info is useful to you. If there are further questions, ask away.

PJ and M Search answered this the same as I would. If they go on like a pair of sock, probably too big. They are very comfortable, so you aren't going to feel pinched or restricted. They are inexpensive, so I would try the next size down.

Compression tops fit tight, so you might want to go to a size bigger. Loose fit are the size they say.

You will like the fit of the small/med. That's what I ordered and I have roughly the same measurements. If you have to "go" while you are wearing them do not pull the legs down if you are sweaty. Roll them down from the top just far enough or you won't get the legs back up without a lot of baby powder.

Might be. Wash and dry them first. They will be a snugger fit. Like them a lot though. Worth a try.

I cannot say for sure, as I only bought these. I did use a few objects (e.g., a lipstick tube) to stretch out the small toes. That's where they were the most pinchy on me (4th, 5th toes). I am pretty close to a 6.5 on most things. On some I've done 7. On ski boots I had a 6 and I did smaller on climbing shoes that were really meant to be snug. I thought I googled at one point on sizing and got a comparison of the various styles, like kmd and sprint. If you're at all concerned, wouldn't the one size up be less likely to pinch and you could get those sox with the toes?

For me they feel to small and tight. I got size large I believe. I'm not sure how to size them for women. I'd get a bit bigger than you usually do.

my answer would be small. how ever it seems the cargo pants ride too low on the hips for me and the inseam is very short. zumba is changing their sizing because they have had complaints. but I do have to say I have a problem with keeping leggings and capri pants up. my daudhter called it the crouch effect. you could do what Laurel suggested and try both the x-small and small.

They are supposed to be a very snug fit. But if you are having trouble pushing all the way in, they probably got damaged during packing/shipping. Please contact CrazyOnDigital customer service through your Amazon account with order id and we will send you replacements. Thanks! - CrazyOnDigital

I have a very small foot and mine are very comfortably snug, I wouldn't think it would be loose. That's my experience.
